Comparing the curves of evolution of the power
produced by WT using respectively PSO, FL, P&O,
controllers, with the characteristic of the turbine
(figure 3), we deduce that the PSO technique allows
reaching the maximum power for each value of
wind speed with a high stability more than the FL
and P&O techniques.

6 Conclusions
The objective of this paper is to design a new MPPT
control based on the PSO technique for a WECS
system. This paper proposes to analyze the selected
MPPT methods (PSO, FL and P&O) and to evaluate
their behaviors in terms of stability, efficiency in
order to compare them. The simulation is performed
for variable wind speed values.
The PSO technique is used to control the boost
converter by determining the duty cycle value as a
function of the voltage and current values.
The simulation results revealed that PSO ensures
a good tracking of the maximum power point and it
provides more efficient and stable results compared
to the other proposed methods P&O and FL, the
PSO technique eliminates all oscillations presented
by P&O and FL.
The proposed and studied controllers are
implemented in Matlab/Simulink to obtain the
output response of the developed system.
